Bulk Water Supply in Limpopo - RBIG • In addition to the projects being implemented, Table 2 illustrates projects at feasibility, or implementation ready study stage that were funded through the RBIG.
Bulk Water Supply in Limpopo FUNDING • The dams are funded by National Treasury • Funds not so easily available for RBIG and Reticulation through MIG Example: • De Hoop is funded at R3 billion by National Treasury. • Bulk Distribution and reticulation to Households require R20 billion. • R1.2 billion is available from 2007 to 2013 through RBIG and MIG. • Shortfall of R18.8 billion is needed to serve 2 million people and mining. • Mines and Municipalities not in a position to sign off take agreements with DWA.
Bulk Water Supply in Limpopo Example: • RBIG is funding a pipe line from Steelbridge to Jane Furse – 70% completed • Sekhukhune DM with MIG is on tender for WTW at Steelbridge and 10 Megaliter reservoir at Jane Furse for completion July 2012. • DWA has to do Phase 2C pipe from De Hoop Dam to Steelbridge for completion July 2012 depending on funding from National Treasury.
